RIM looks to be helping those BlackBerry 7 owners on carriers that haven't yet released it. We've previously seen this happen in the UK, where only Three and O2 UK were the only carriers to have...
BlackBerry 7.1 now available for U.K. BlackBerry users
A few weeks ago BlackBerry 7.1 became official in the U.K. through two networks. O2 UK were the first to drop it and then Three UK promptly followed suit.
